Goaltender Thatcher Demko of Team USA has committed to play hockey at Boston College following his USHL career.

The recently turned 17-year-old has posted a 4-2-0 record in six
appearances for Team USA’s Under-18 squad during USHL play this season,
including winning three of his last four starts. Demko first broke into
the USHL last season as a member of the Omaha Lancers and recorded a
9-3-0 record with a 2.87 GAA. The San Diego, California native stopped
all 22 shots he faced in the 7-0 win against Cedar Rapids on February 17th,
2012, earning his first USHL career shutout. He was just 16 at the
time and became the youngest goaltender in the USHL Tier 1 era
(2002-present) to record a shutout.
